I checked on a few things which looked lilke they were in stock, but upon clicking the link it showed them as sold out. Oh well I guess I just did not really need the stuff anyways
I just bought a North Face sleeping bag there 2 days ago for $140. Now it's another 50% off. I called the store and they won't price match because when I bought it, it was 20% off, but said that I could return it (she said that they send all returns back to the warehouse, heh).
I went ahead and orded one online for $68, and I'm going to return the other one.
Perhaps you aren't familiar with the merchandise to begin with. I've been shopping around for a Sierra Design tent for a while now, and if you go to froogle or amazon or wherever - the prices for REI normally are pretty competive, but with this sale - the Sierra Design tent is almost $100 less than what I could find online. Yes, this is a lot more expensive outdoor equipment than what you would get at a Sporting Goods store, but it's also very quality and specialized merchandise.
Anyway, going to pick up the tent tomorrow - looking forward to some fall camping with my two young boys!
